Walker did not campaign on plans to spin off the University of Wisconsin System as a public authority and now says he will sign so-called right-to-work legislation even though he insisted for years he would keep the measure from reaching his desk. (167)

If Park Bank is liable for not spotting Sujata "Sue" Sachdeva's $34 million embezzlement from Koss Corp. and has to reimburse the company, Koss Chief Executive Michael Koss should also be ordered to personally pay the public company he runs, the bank argues in a new lawsuit.

Grant Thornton, Koss Corp.'s former auditor, should also have to pay a portion of any award that may be ordered, Park Bank argued in the latest twist in a long-running court fight stemming from Sachdeva's massive embezzlement.

"Park Bank denies any and all liability to Koss in this case," the bank said in its action. "Nevertheless, should Park Bank be found liable to Koss (Corp.) and required to pay damages to Koss, in this case, those damages will have been the result of a common liability of Park Bank, Michael Koss and Grant Thornton, thereby entitling Park Bank to (a) contribution from Michael Koss and Grant Thornton."(10)

Prosecutor sued by Harley-Davidson dealer who was forced to testify at John Doe

Christopher Brekken sells Harley-Davidsons in Rice Lake, and he's got a big problem with the Milwaukee prosecutor who's been leading the John Doe probe into possible illegal activity among aides to Gov. Scott Walker when he was running Milwaukee County.

Brekken has sued Assistant District Attorney Bruce Landgraf, seeking damages for false imprisonment and abuse of process related to a 2010 subpoena for records about some credit card purchases from Rice Lake Harley-Davidson.

The suit, filed in Barron County Circuit Court in September, claims that Brekken could not produce or obtain the very specific information that had been subpoenaed, and that he told Landgraf he could not not.

But a bench warrant was issued for Brekken's in October 2010 that required him to travel to Milwaukee in November 2010 to again affirm under oath that he couldn't find out the full credit card number used by specific person on a specific date at Rice Lake Harley.

In quoting the subpoena, the lawsuit redacts the name, date, amount and partial credit card number.

Brekken, 46, contends Landgraf had a vendetta against him because Brekken hung up on him when Landgraf first called to try and get the credit card information.

Landgraf has filed a motion to dismiss the case, claiming that Brekken failed to file the proper notice of claim.

Neither Brekken nor his attorney, Michael Schwartz of St. Paul, Minn., returned messages.

Landgraf said his attorneys at the Department of Justice did not want him to comment.

Walker's current spokesman Cullen Werwie said he did not know Brekken or whether he had played any role in Walker's campaign, and staff more familiar with Walker's campaign did not return a message.

As county executive, Walker took annual motorcycle tours around Wisconsin to promote Milwaukee County, including in 2009 and 2010 when he was also running for governor.

The case is set for a telephone conference on Friday before Barron County Circuit Judge James Babbitt.
